450 b brake adjustment

Post by make do homesteader » Wed Apr 19, 2023 10:24 am

In the manuel for my 450b it says to adjust the brake band yoke with the pedal against the stop.
Which stop? forward engaged or back at rest? thanks for the help.

Adjust with brake fully at the rest stop

I'm trying to adjust my 450B brakes and steering levers. I still don't know what the brake stop looks like. Is it the tab that's part of the floor plate? If so, my pedel won't go that far back. Do I need to adjust the brake rod yoke? Thanks for the help.

Okay; I think I found the elusive stop. There is a tab sticking out from the transmission case against which the brake pedal's arm can rest. That's got to be it. Can anyone confirm this?
